We’re in for an exciting night of WNBA action. Thursday’s slate features five games, including Aces-Liberty and Storm-Dream, which could both be nail-biters and highlight some of the league’s top talent.
Here are some of my favorite WNBA prop bets today.

Aliyah Boston: Over 3.5 Assists (-115) vs Aces
DraftKings Sportsbook • WAGER: 1 Unit
Boston has improved her playmaking skills considerably this year, entering tonight’s meeting with the Aces averaging a career-high 3.6 assists per game. She’s taken on additional responsibilities as a facilitator when Caitlin Clark sits, and the second-year superstar is slated to miss tonight’s contest.
Meanwhile, this Las Vegas defense hasn’t been nearly as effective as in years past, ranking ninth in points allowed per game (82) and 12th in opponent assists (21.3). Boston also tends to show out against fellow South Carolina alum A’ja Wilson, averaging 15.1 points, nine rebounds, and 2.4 assists over eight career meetings.
Boston has already hit this mark in eight of her first 16 games, including a stretch from late May to mid-June in which she accomplished the feat seven times in a row. That doesn’t happen by accident – lock in the over with your WNBA bet of the day.

Mercury: 1H -6.5 (-112) at Wings
DraftKings Sportsbook • WAGER: 1 Unit
Phoenix, now that the new-look roster is healthy and fully integrated, is playing phenomenal ball. The Mercury have won seven of their last nine, including two victories over the New York Liberty, and have looked strong on both ends of the floor.
That doesn’t bode well for Dallas, which remains near the bottom of the league standings. Paige Bueckers has her team playing their best basketball of the season right now, but the overall talent simply isn’t there, and questions remain after the Wings traded NaLyssa Smith earlier this week.
All things considered, Phoenix has every reason to come in and take control of this one early. Look for the Mercury to lead by at least seven points going into the break.
